Elgin
About
Elgin Separation Solutions, a product line of Astec with a heritage dating to 1864 and over 20,000 installations worldwide, specializes in liquid/solids separation, fluid recovery, dewatering, material sizing, and waste management across mining, oil and gas, wastewater, dredging, and recycling industries. For water intake applications, Elgin manufactures Coanda screens for run-of-river passive intake that use the Coanda effect to exclude debris and aquatic organisms without moving parts; cylindrical submerged screens for high-capacity water intake paired with AirBurst compressed air cleaning systems that eliminate the need for diver intervention; and side hill screens for gravity-driven screening. Their proprietary copper-nickel (CuNi) construction and coating technology resists corrosion and biofouling from zebra and quagga mussels, a critical advantage for Great Lakes and coastal facilities. On the dewatering side, Elgin offers decanter centrifuges including the ESS-1655-HYD hydraulic model, screen bowl centrifuges, VCD (Vertical Centrifugal Dryer) systems such as the CSI-D4, and packaged mud systems like the KT-250X-S. The CMI Vibratory Centrifuge HVC-1400 and Tabor vibrating screens round out the separation portfolio. Elgin provides custom-engineered turnkey solutions supported by in-house engineering, control panel fabrication, field service, and aftermarket repair for centrifuges, VCDs, and mud systems of all makes.
